• 2 celery stalks (finely chopped)
• 1 red bell pepper (seeded and chopped)
• 1 yellow bell pepper (seeded and chopped)
• 400 g (14oz) black beans (drained )
• 800 g (24oz) Chopped tomatoes
• 2-3 cups corn ((I used frozen but fresh/canned can also be used) )
• 4 chicken breasts

Preparación

1. 1

   Set the Instant Pot to the saute function and add a splash of oil to the pot.

2. 2

   Add the diced vegetables to the pot and allow to saute for a few minutes until they start to caramelize. This step is optional but it definitely adds more flavor to the finished soup.

3. 3

   Once the vegetables are soft and fragrant, add the drained beans, tomatoes, corn, seasoning and chicken breasts.

4. 4

   Add chicken stock then close the Instant Pot, making sure the vent is in the sealing position.

5. 5

   Set the Instant Pot to the SOUP function for 10 minutes. After the soup has cooked quick-release the pressure. Remove the chicken breasts and shred then transfer back to the soup.

6. 6

   Taste the soup and adjust seasoning as necessary. I find with Instant Pot recipes I always need to add a bit of salt. If the soup is too runny for your preference, allow it to reduce on the saute function for a few minutes.

7. 7

   Serve the soup topped with sour cream, jalapeños and cilantro.

    Cover and allow to simmer for 20-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked and tender. Remove the chicken and shred, then transfer back to the soup.
